Arabic servers are the problem

Not that long ago the middle east got their own servers, which for some reason are in european region, not asian, therefore european players from countries like norway or uk are forced to play on arabic servers with over 150 ping. How come an AAA game have no ping cap option? Most heroes are unplayable with ping this high.

EDIT: There actually is a fix already, but it’s still funny how this big company can make even bigger mistake

completely, utterly, thoroughly, unreservedly, definitely, certainly, untrue. this has never happened to me or any of my friends. You are clearly from Israel, so there’s a chance you just don’t want to play with your middle eastern piers. that’s fine. Just don’t drag European servers in to your argument because its 100% false.

On top of that you can select any region you like.

lmao i am not even from israel, i just use this flag as my profile picture because people are toxic and antisemitism is easy to trigger with this flag on and blizzard is really sensitive about it so one report is enough to get someone banned. If you read my post you would know that this is a common problem even for people from uk and surely, if i have ping problems on eu region (because of arabic servers, which shouldnt be there) i am going to switch to asia or us servers, the ping should be better, right ;)?

it’s not though is it

I’m in the UK and it put me on the crappy ME servers several times until I nullrouted AWS Bahrain

not happened since

UK technically isn EU anymore though… :stuck_out_tongue:
But fair enough, i havent heard of it before you said something.

you said European servers, not EU servers

Europe and the EU are not the same thing

I genuinely didn’t know this, how does that work?

Europe is a physical area. EU is a union, the European Union, between countries in aforementioned area.

i’m from france and i’m force to play on ME servers like 3/5 times a day even in rank with 150ping and i dont know why so dont say it’s not true cause it is :*

I agree, this issue occurs to me when i play at ungodly times like at 4-7am its frustrating when you are in high diamond and gotta wait like 1hour for a game to play at 150ms-200ms
